The proposed strategy will lead to the development of various advanced micelle structures with tunable, on-demand cavity functions in water. Micelles assemble in water from amphiphilic molecules, ...

Micelles play a crucial role in dispersing hydrophobic inks and drug in water-based solutions. Recently, researchers compared the dye solubilization capacities of micelles made from block and random ...

In oil recovery and fermentation, for example, foams are a byproduct. Whenever soapy water is agitated, foams are formed. They are mostly gas pockets separated by thin liquid films that often contain ...

The amphiphilic nature of Pluronics enables them to self-assemble in aqueous solutions, forming core-shell micelles. This property is particularly valuable in drug delivery systems, where Pluronics ...

Researchers made porous aromatic polymers water-soluble using micelles, enabling them to carry hydrocarbons and dyes as multi-component materials. (Nanowerk News) While molecues with a single cavity ...

Block copolymer micelles with well-defined core-shell structures significantly improve dye solubilization compared to random copolymers. This finding can lead to more efficient and cost-effective ...
